[0035] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0036] As people's living standards improve, their requirements for food storage are also increasing. Traditional single-temperature-zone refrigeration equipment can no longer meet the diverse food storage needs. Although there are some multi-temperature-zone refrigeration devices on the market, they generally suffer from problems such as inaccurate temperature control, poor humidity regulation, and high energy consumption. In addition, existing refrigeration equipment also needs improvement in terms of user experience, such as inconvenient door opening and poor visibility. Therefore, this utility model aims to provide a multi-temperature-zone environmental control refrigerator to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies and achieve a highly efficient and energy-saving food storage solution.

[0037] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 The refrigerator proposed in this utility model includes:

[0038] Cabinet 1, with multiple spaced storage areas 2 inside cabinet 1;

[0039] The temperature control device includes multiple temperature control units that correspond one-to-one with the storage area 2. Each temperature control unit includes a temperature sensor for individually detecting the temperature in the storage area 2 and a refrigerant circulation loop for individually reducing the temperature in the storage area 2. The compressor in the refrigerant circulation loop adjusts the temperature in the storage area 2 according to the temperature detected by the temperature sensor.

[0040] It should be noted that the refrigerant circulation loop is formed by connecting the evaporator, compressor, and condenser through pipelines.

[0041] This invention equips each storage area 2 with an independent temperature sensor and refrigerant circulation loop. The temperature sensor automatically monitors and provides feedback on the temperature inside the storage area 2, and the compressor in the refrigerant circulation loop automatically adjusts the temperature inside the storage area 2 based on the feedback from the temperature sensor, ensuring that the temperature inside the storage area 2 is within the set range, which helps to maintain the freshness of the food.

[0042] In practical applications, the compressor in the refrigerant circulation loop adjusts its operating frequency based on feedback from the temperature sensor, thereby regulating the temperature within storage zone 2. For example, if the temperature sensor indicates that the current temperature in storage zone 2 is high, the compressor's operating frequency is increased to deliver more cooling load to storage zone 2, thus lowering the temperature. Conversely, if the sensor indicates that the current temperature in storage zone 2 is low, the compressor's operating frequency is decreased to reduce the cooling load input to storage zone 2. Of course, when there is no need to deliver cooling load to storage zone 2, i.e., the compressor does not need to perform work to provide cooling load, the compressor is controlled to stop, and its operating frequency is zero.

[0043] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, multiple adjustable horizontal partitions 3 and multiple adjustable vertical partitions 4 are slidably arranged inside the cabinet 1. The multiple adjustable horizontal partitions 3 and multiple adjustable vertical partitions 4 cooperate with the inner sidewall of the cabinet 1 to divide multiple storage areas 2.

[0044] It should be noted that this utility model does not limit the specific number of adjustable horizontal partitions 3, adjustable vertical partitions 4 and storage area 2, and they can be flexibly selected according to actual needs.

[0045] This utility model divides the storage area 2 by setting adjustable horizontal partitions 3 and adjustable vertical partitions 4 inside the cabinet 1. Users can flexibly adjust the size of each storage area 2 according to actual needs, adapting to the food storage needs of various sizes and shapes.

[0046] In an optional embodiment of this utility model, the adjustable horizontal partition 3 and the adjustable vertical partition 4 are vacuum insulation panels.

[0047] Vacuum insulation panels are a type of vacuum insulation material that can effectively prevent heat transfer caused by air convection, thus significantly reducing the thermal conductivity.

[0048] This utility model features adjustable horizontal partitions 3 and adjustable vertical partitions 4, which are made of vacuum insulation panels to form a high-efficiency insulation layer. This effectively locks in heat and saves energy, reducing energy consumption and conforming to the concept of environmental protection.

[0049] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, a humidity regulating device 5 for regulating the humidity inside the entire cabinet 1 is provided at the bottom of the cabinet 1.

[0050] This utility model is equipped with a humidity regulating device 5 to ensure that the humidity inside the entire cabinet 1 is within the set range.

[0051] In an optional embodiment of this utility model, the humidity regulating device 5 includes a humidifier and a dehumidifier.

[0052] In practical applications, ultrasonic humidifiers can be used. These humidifiers use ultrasonic technology to finely atomize moisture and release it evenly into the cabinet, maintaining a suitable humidity level. A dehumidifying wheel automatically absorbs moisture, preventing excessive humidity from causing food to mold or rot.

[0053] In an optional embodiment of this utility model, a humidity sensor is installed inside the cabinet 1.

[0054] In practical applications, humidity sensors can be integrated with temperature sensors onto the same sensor, i.e., a temperature and humidity sensor.

[0055] This invention uses a humidity sensor to automatically monitor and provide feedback on the humidity inside the cabinet 1, so that the humidity adjustment device 5 can automatically adjust the humidity inside the cabinet based on the feedback from the humidity sensor, ensuring that the humidity inside the entire cabinet 1 is maintained within the ideal range.

[0056] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the front of the cabinet 1 has two double doors 6, and each door 6 has a handle 7. Users can pull the doors 6 to retrieve or store food.

[0057] Of course, in some other optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, a cabinet door 6 is provided on the front side of the cabinet 1, which is suitable for refrigerators with a relatively small overall storage volume.

[0058] In an optional embodiment of this utility model, the cabinet door 6 adopts a double-layer electrically heated hollow glass structure.

[0059] It should be noted that double-glazed electrically heated insulated glass is a new type of glass product that integrates energy saving, environmental protection, and safety. It uses the principle of heating the glass surface by passing an electric heating film through it to achieve the functions of defogging and defrosting. Coated electrically heated insulated glass also has heat insulation and sound insulation functions. Specifically, due to the presence of the air gap, it can effectively block the transfer of hot and cold air from the outside, providing excellent heat insulation; at the same time, due to the double-layer structure and sealing performance of the glass, it can also effectively reduce the transmission of noise.

[0060] This utility model features a cabinet door 6 with a double-layer electrically heated hollow glass structure, which is not only aesthetically pleasing but also integrates electrically heated anti-fog technology to ensure a clear and unobstructed view.

[0061] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a human-computer interaction interface 8 is installed on one of the cabinet doors 6 to meet the user's interaction needs.

[0062] It should be noted that the human-computer interaction interface 8 presents information through graphical elements (such as buttons, menus, icons, etc.) and allows users to interact by clicking, dragging, etc., thereby improving the user experience.

[0063] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, the cabinet body 1 and / or the cabinet door 6 are provided with automatic sensors for automatic door opening and closing.

[0064] It should be noted that the automatic sensor can be an infrared sensor. When a person or object approaches the refrigerator, the automatic sensor will detect this change and transmit the signal to the refrigerator's controller, which will then trigger the opening or closing mechanism of the refrigerator door 6.

[0065] This utility model features an automatic sensor installed in the refrigerator, enabling a convenient and contactless opening experience and improving user satisfaction.

[0066] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, the cabinet 1 is made of high-strength stainless steel, which is sturdy, durable, and easy to clean. For example... Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, a display screen 9 is also installed on the cabinet 1 to display information, so that users can intuitively obtain the information they need.

[0067] To better understand, the following is a complete description of the refrigerator provided in the preferred embodiment of this utility model.

[0068] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 3 The refrigerator includes a cabinet body 1 and two cabinet doors 6. The cabinet body 1 is made of high-strength stainless steel and is equipped with a display screen 9. The two cabinet doors 6 are made of double-layer electrically heated hollow glass and are equipped with door handles 7 and automatic sensors. One of the cabinet doors 6 is equipped with a human-machine interface 8.

[0069] The cabinet 1 is equipped with multiple adjustable horizontal partitions 3 and multiple adjustable vertical partitions 4 arranged in a crisscross pattern to divide the cabinet into multiple storage areas 2. The adjustable horizontal partitions 3 and adjustable vertical partitions are made of vacuum heat insulation panels.

[0070] The refrigerator also includes a temperature control device, which comprises multiple temperature control units, each corresponding to one of the storage zones 2. Each temperature control unit includes a temperature and humidity sensor located on the back of each storage zone 2 and a refrigerant circulation loop. The compressor in the refrigerant circulation loop adjusts the temperature within each storage zone 2 based on feedback from the temperature and humidity sensors, allowing for individual temperature control within each storage zone 2. This enables personalized temperature control based on the preservation needs of different foods. For example, the first storage zone 21 is a frozen zone, the second storage zone 22 is a refrigerated zone, the third storage zone 23 is a room temperature zone, and the fourth storage zone 24 is a waiting zone.

[0071] The refrigerator also includes a humidity control device 5, which automatically adjusts the humidity inside the entire refrigerator based on feedback from temperature and humidity sensors, thereby maintaining a suitable humidity environment inside the refrigerator. The humidity control device 5 includes a humidifier and a dehumidifier located at the bottom of the refrigerator body 1. The humidifier increases humidity by spraying, and the dehumidifier removes excess moisture by absorbing moisture.

[0072] This invention relates to a refrigerator equipped with a temperature control device and a humidity control device. The temperature control device, in conjunction with the humidity control device, can automatically adjust the environment inside the refrigerator according to the type and condition of different foods. For example, for perishable foods, the system will automatically lower the temperature and increase the humidity, while for fruits and vegetables, the system will adjust accordingly based on their storage requirements. Furthermore, the multi-temperature zone environmental control refrigerator proposed in this invention can precisely regulate temperature and humidity, providing a more scientific and convenient solution for food preservation, significantly improving food preservation results and user experience.

[0073] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
